Boston Hound coming to Chicago for a weekend

This trip can't arrive soon enough, I'm too excited for the (too few) meals I will be having.

I'll be in town for just a weekend 2 Breakfasts, 2 Lunches, 2 Dinners. But, I'm going to try to squeeze in as many snacks and in-between-meal meals as possible. One dinner is already spoken for ( we're very excited to be going to Alinea). Because of that one dinner, the rest of the trip will be on a tighter budget. We'll be staying at the Marriott downtown on the magnificent mile.

Since this will be my first 'real' trip to the windy city, I really need to get some Chicago style pizza and a hot dog. I've been doing some research on this board and have a few ideas so far:

For perfectly fried, mozzarella Arancini, dip a rice ball into flour and shake off any excess. Dip floured ball into egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Finish by coating completely in breadcrumbs. Repeat.

Hidden Valley is giving a $35,000 bottle of ranch to the Royal Couple. The bottle is made of 18-carat white gold, diamond and sapphire-encrusted glass. Don’t worry. You can win an identical copy of the luxurious bottle.

This stew is based on the savory rice porridge congee, which has roots in Chinese, Thai, and Korean cuisines. Though the dish uses some classic Asian ingredients—such as fish sauce, ginger, and bok choy—the flavors are not aggressively Asian.
